How do I answer the ‘weaknesses’ question in interviews?

We are all human and therefore we all have areas of improvement – this is certainly not a detriment to ourselves or to the interview. By identifying your weakness, it shows you are aware of it and willing to learn techniques on how to change/improve

What’s the difference between a coffee interview and a job interview?

 

A coffee interview is often more casual and for the recruiter/interviewer to get to know if you would be a culturally good fit for the company/role. A job interview is where the questions are more challenging as the interviewer needs to determine whether you have the skills and ability to undertake the role. You would provide examples of where you have done/achieved XYZ etc.

What to wear for interview- Ladies

 

Depending on the type of company you are interviewing for (i.e. is it a corporate law firm or a laid-back creative agency) it is always safer to be overdressed than not. Do some research on the company and its’ policies as they might help you decipher what their internal values are and therefore what type of people they might be. Alternatively, ask your recruiter as they have an understanding of who the client (your interviewer) are. If you wear something too outrageous that draws attention to you then people may judge you by what you wear rather than by what you say and think
